Fixed a factory defect in the tailstock

In this video I eliminate the backlash of the tailstock quill

[@eddietowers5595]

This is the best repair of a factory defect on the tail stock of this mini-lathe, I’ve literally ever saw. Awesome job.

[@hammerland4028]

Thank you

[@rsc4peace971]

a creative solution to a common problem even with some larger expensive benchtop lathes. You need a milling attachment to your lathe or a mini mill too

[@vandalsgarage]

Mate, your ability to turn an inexpensive Chinese mini lathe into a precision machine tool in unparalleled. I've been a big fan since your first videos upgrading this lathe. Proper job, much respect.

I remember these old skills when I was a young man in engineering so nice to see them still being used. I think with the modern world these skills are being lost whishing you the best in the future.

[@mohammadrahmani5067]

nicely done , and good to see you making videos again after a long time

[@hammerland4028]

Thank you! I will try to make videos more often

[@WeCanDoThatBetter]

Really well done! Enjoyed the video and your approach to the wobbly tailstock problem :) Thanks for sharing! I will take this for inspiration;)

[@hammerland4028]

thank you very much

[@pirminkogleck4056]

Beautiful job ! Well done !!!!

[@sharkbaitsurfer]

That was all through exceptionally well done and the touch with the reground masonry drill as a scraper is just genius - I had initially thought the grinders, even used delicately as you did were - AHEM - crude - I was wrong to rush to judgement

[@m0gga]

Very nice solution, bravo!

Top marks. Now I know why I break so many centre drills. 👍👍👍👍👍

Power scrapping!

[@haroldpearson6025]

Find a used small industrial machine such as a Colchester Bantam or a Boxford. I had a 1970s Colchester Chipmaster. I paid £400 for it. Used it for 20 years and built 4 live steam locomotives, 2 - 7.25, 1 5in &1 3.5 in gauge.

[@johnrussell6620]

At 2:00, you have 2 intersecting holes for boring bits, then you have 2 more intersecting holes, was there a dimensioning error? Did you use both sets of holes to complete the boring process?

[@ParsMaker]

Nice work, I will check mine later to see how bad it is😂

[@johnrussell6620]

At 4:45, Why did you select steel vs brass or bronze? I'm not trying to be critical, I'm just trying to understand your decisions made vs other possible decisions. I desperately need to do something like this to my lathe! Thanks for this video!

[@hammerland4028]

I didn't have a suitable bronze blank

[@DieselpunkMachine]

Because it's a movie star lathe, like difference between Rambo and Stallone.

[@johnrussell6620]

At 0:20, seconds to 45 seconds ... What are you doing? Are you measuring the inner diameter by experimentation? Are you comparing the slug you made to the actual tailstock telescoping tube at 45sec? Thanks for making this video and presenting this idea!

[@Soren_Marodoren]

Well done!

Dziękuję!

Muy bueno , gracias 😊

[@andreyfrolov1532]

Нормальный такой люфт😮 смотрим.

[@amtheesmobile]

A pergunta é: pra que tanta precisão no contraponto se o restante do equipamento não tem nenhuma precisão? 🤔 É muito tempo gasto...

[@rickpalechuk4411]

Nice

[@Jason.O379]

time to to some sketchy shit do da, do da

[@johnrussell6620]

At 2:45, Why did you not use the tailstock to bedway clamping bolt to help steady the boring process? Won't actually clamping the tailstock to the bedway during use, actually change the center height vs your repair height?

[@hammerland4028]

It is not possible to make an accurate boring this way, so I bored a little more and used epoxy glue, and positioned it with the quill clamped in the chuck.

Sorry, I can't explain everything through Google Translate

[@tcarney57]

@badjuju6563: I was able to follow every move he made and why he was making them. Frankly, there's too much blather (and pointless music) in videos like this. I suppose a compromise would be to add a few _necessary_ subtitles.

[@sjakiesjakie2165]

Cheap chinese crap.

[@HorizonMakes]

you measured off of different points in the before and after, once on the center drill and once on the quill, this makes any comparison impossible. from what i can visually see, it looks like there isn't really much improvement in the backlash, with a lot of it coming from the morse tapers.

[@johnrussell6620]

At 0:12 and 20sec you can visually see the excess deflection, then at 12:50, you almost can not measure the deflection, let alone "SEE IT". This is a massive improvement whether he measured it 'Before and After' properly or not! It LOOKS and MEASURES just fine for the purpose at hand.

[@Omsip123]

0:12 and 12:47, what is your point
